- PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE OF INTENT NON-COMPETITIVE INTRODUCTION PURSUANT TO FAR Subpart 5.2-Synopses of Proposed Contract Actions, THIS IS A PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE OF A PROPOSED CONTRACT TO ACTION.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), Station Support Contracts and Simplified Acquisitions Branch (SS/SA) on behalf of the National Institute of Mental Health intends to negotiate and award a contract for electrophysiology booths. NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (NAICS) CODE The intended procurement is classified under NAICS code 339112 - Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing, with a Size Standard of 1,000 employees. REGULATORY AUTHORITY The resultant contract will include all applicable provisions and clauses of the Federal acquisition Requlation (FAR) in effect through the Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 05-95, 19 Jan, 2017. STATUTORY AUTHORITY This acquisition is conducted under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13-Simplified Acquisition Procedures, Subpart 13.106-1 (b) (1), Soliciting from a single source. DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENT This notice of proposed acquisition is posted as an intent to award a purchase order on a non-competitive basis to: Arrington Research Inc. 27237 N 71st Pl Scottsdale, AZ, 85262-8837 The essential characteristics of the MIU01 Monocular USB 220 Hz for head fixed use eye tracking package that limit the availability to a sole source is its compatibility with the current training equipment and software so that the eye tracker can be installed in identical training rigs and that the data can be compared to the data collected from the existing set ups. Only this suggested source can furnish the requirements, to the exclusion of other sources, because the operation, the physical system characteristics, the interface to the existing hardware and the compatibility with existing software would lead to the inability of moving the non-human primates from one training rig to another and the loss of comparability of the data. Project Description 220 Hz Eye tracking system for head fixed use, interchangeable optics, USB interface, ViewPoint EyeTracker analysis software. Eye tracking system integrates with MonkeyLogic behavioral control platform and is mounted in custom built training rigs. Specifically, MIU01 Monocular USB 220 Hz for HMD/Head Fixed Use camera, ViewPoint EyeTracker software, 25mm C-Mount Lens and 75mm C-Mount Lens.
